IMPACT WRESTLING 5/3/12

Bobby Roode will be defending his World Championship against #1 Contender Rob Van Dam at Sacrifice on May 13th. Tonight both men will see action but the twist is that they get to pick each other’s opponents. If Abyss was around I could see him being a shoe-in because nobody wants to face a monster, but if I were a betting man I’d put money on James Storm and Bully Ray being the chosen opponents.

There will also be the classic combo match where they put together a 6-man tag match based on Sacrifice matches. AJ, Samoa Joe, and Magnus will team up to square off against Kurt Angle, Christopher Daniels, and Kazarian. If given the right amount of time, this match has the wrestling talent to be a five star classic so keep your fingers crossed.

The Knockouts Tag Team Champs, ODB and Eric Young need opponents, so tonight former champs Gail Kim and Madison Rayne team up to face Velvet Sky and Brooke Tessmacher to determine the #1 contenders for the straps.

Last week on Impact, Alex Silva competed in the first ever Gut Check Challenge in an effort to get a TNA contract. Tonight he learns his fate. GM Hulk Hogan’s judging panel will make their decision and give Silva a job or crush his dreams.

Check out Impact Wrestling tonight and come back tomorrow and let us know what you think.
